අපේ පෝරුව · where two families become one
Two families. Three ceremonies. Four hundred guests. One calm couple.
Built for how Sri Lankan weddings actually happen: both families on one guest list, RSVPs that come back on WhatsApp, seating that sorts itself, and your real headcount in hand before the hotel asks for it. From poruwa to homecoming.
Free while you plan · no credit card · your guests never install anything
Right now, the wedding lives in three spreadsheets and four group chats.
Someone's cousin was added twice. Nobody knows if the balance was paid. The seating chart has been "almost done" for a month. And the hotel wants a final count by Friday. At Rs 6,000–20,000 a plate², every name you're guessing about is real money. It isn't anyone's fault. The tools were never built for a wedding this size.
WhatsApp RSVP
Your headcount is money.
Stop guessing it.
The hotel bills you for the number you promise, at Rs 6,000–20,000 a plate². So every guest gets a personal invite link on WhatsApp, where 11 million Sri Lankans already are. They tap, you count. No app, no login, no chasing. Achchi just taps. In Sinhala, Tamil or English.
- One tap to confirm, decline, or bring the +1
- One link for a whole family, and everyone finds their own invite inside
- If someone declines, their seat frees itself and the count stays true
- Your real number, ready before the hotel's deadline

What is “no reply yet” costing you?
Drag the sliders to your wedding. This is the money riding on guesswork.
Rs 720,000 riding on “they'll probably come.”
apé poruwa turns every one of those into a yes or a no. Free.
The seating chart
Who sits where, solved.
The job every couple dreads, and every family has opinions about. Scroll, and watch it sort itself.
400 names, straight from both families.
400 names. Zero order.
Add both families' lists in one go: yours, your partner's, amma's handwritten one. If someone's cousin got added twice, we catch it.
The sides find each other.
Group guests the way families actually think: bride's side, groom's side, university friends, office crowd. Groups stay together when seating happens.
Every guest finds a seat. In seconds.
One tap, and hundreds of guests have their seats: friends together, families together, every chair filled. Don't like it? Tweak it and run it again.
Even the two aunties who don't talk.
Tell it who shouldn't sit together, and they end up at opposite ends of the hall. The engine handles the politics. You take the credit.
And on the day, watch them arrive.
Guests check in at the door with a QR or a tap, and each arrival lights up live on your phone, your planner's laptop, even your watch. Your real headcount, while the kitchen can still act on it.
Start free
Your four hundred, seated in seconds. Free while you plan.
And the rest of it
The boring bits, quietly handled.
Money, vendors, to-dos: the unglamorous stuff a wedding runs on, kept in the same place as everything else.
Vendors
A curated catalogue of photographers, florists, hotels and more, linked straight to your budget and your to-dos.
Tasks & timeline
Who's doing what by when: one calm morning note while you plan, and on the day, small jobs anyone nearby can claim.
Built for families
Stop being the messenger between two families.
A Sri Lankan wedding is a family project, and you shouldn't be the one relaying every name, every change, every question. Give each person their own door into the same wedding: they see exactly what they should, and nothing they shouldn't. Peace of mind, and peace at home.
Owners
You two. Full control of everything, always.
Planner
Runs seating, timeline and vendors like a pro.
Amma
Watches her side's list fill in, without twelve calls a day through you.
Thaththa
Sees the plan, not the price tags. Everyone relaxes.
One wedding, every screen
Amma's phone. Your planner's laptop.
The apé poruwa app keeps the whole family planning from their pockets, the web planner gives seating and the big day the room they deserve, and on the day itself check-ins tick up live on your wrist, watchOS or Wear OS. Everyone sees the same wedding. Your guests never install a thing.
Apps launching soon. Start free on the web today.
The seating hall you watched earlier? That's the real screen.
The day itself, and after
After they say yes, the day takes care of itself.
The RSVP was only the beginning. From the card in their hands to the photos the morning after, it's all part of the same wedding.
Watch them arrive, live
Guests check in at the door with a QR or a tap, and every arrival lights up on your phone, the planner's laptop, your watch. Your true headcount, while the kitchen can still act on it. No more "shall we wait ten more minutes?"
The last few hours, handed out
Before the doors open there are a hundred small jobs: chairs, cake table, poruwa flowers. Put each one on the day's list with a time. Whoever's free taps "I've got this" and the job has a name. Anything nobody takes goes to your planner while there's still time. You two just get married.
Their name on the card
Upload your card design once, and every guest downloads theirs with their own name, table and seats already filled in. Ready for WhatsApp, or the printer.
A QR on every table
Print tent cards with your monogram for each table. Guests scan to check in, and the door count you watched earlier ticks up on its own.
Everyone's photos, one album
Guests who checked in can add their photos to a shared album: the whole day through four hundred pairs of eyes, waiting for you the next morning.
Keep every bit of it
When the homecoming is done, download the whole wedding in one keepsake archive: the lists, the seating, every photo.

Why “apé poruwa”
The poruwa is where two families become one.
For centuries, Sri Lankan couples have stood on the poruwa, a decorated platform, as their families joined around them. Apé poruwa means our poruwa: this is that platform, rebuilt in software. One place where both sides stand together, for the lists, the seats, the budget, the day itself.
Sinhala · தமிழ் · English: invitations and RSVPs in the language each guest speaks.
